Max J. says the upcoming true wireless earbuds will be called the OnePlus Buds Z. However, this isn’t the first time that the OnePlus Buds Z name has surfaced online. Earlier this month, an OxygenOS 11 Open Beta build for the OnePlus 8 series had also hinted at the existence of a cheaper pair of true wireless earbuds called the OnePlus Buds Z.

Since the OnePlus Buds cost $80 in the U.S., it is possible that the upcoming OnePlus Buds Z will be priced under $50. They are expected to have a similar design to the OnePlus Buds, but will likely be a downgrade in other areas such as sound quality and battery life.

While there is no word yet on when the OnePlus Buds Z could launch, it is possible that the wireless earbuds will be announced alongside the OnePlus 8T in late September or early October.
